Chapter 198 Newlywed
When Jinghan woke up again, it was already bright outside. Zixuan slept deeply, with a satisfied smile on his handsome face.
It's time to get up, I have to serve tea to my parents-in-law today. Jinghan moved cautiously and wanted to get up, but was hugged by Zixuan. "Don't move, let me hug you and sleep for a while." Zixuan muttered.
"It's daybreak. If you don't get up, you'll be late serving tea to your parents." Jinghan said lazily.
Zixuan looked at the sky outside and found that it was getting late. He stood up helplessly and said, "Okay, get up and have breakfast." He actually got up naked.
Jinghan was a little shy, "Go, put on your clothes."
"Madam, are you shy? Hahaha, didn't you see everything last night? I also saw you all. It's only a little late that I think of you now." Zixuan didn't care about that, he got up and looked for clothes. Put it on, then look back at Jinghan who was hiding under the quilt. "How is it? My husband has a good figure, right? Madam, get up and let me help you get dressed."
"I just realized now that you can be so shameless sometimes. Get out of here, I dress myself, who needs you?" Jinghan said angrily.
Zixuan crossed his arms and looked at Jinghan, "You don't need me? Then let me see how you dress. Do you still want to wear yesterday's wedding dress?" He stared at Jinghan with a smirk on his face. "Madam, let me serve you, okay?"
Jinghan was speechless. The person in front of her was usually so serious, so why was he acting like a scoundrel now? "Then can you help me find the clothes?" Jinghan said a little pitifully.
Zixuan hurriedly went to find the clothes. It was still a red dress, but it was much simpler than yesterday's wedding dress. It looked like everyday clothes at home. Then he came to the kang with the clothes in his arms and stretched out his hand to help Jinghan get dressed.
"Well, you'd better turn around and I'll put it on myself." Jinghan still felt a little awkward.
"Why bother? I'll do it for your husband." Zixuan started to dress Jinghan without Jinghan's objection. Bellyband, trousers, underwear, coat, long skirt, put them on one by one. Of course, it’s inevitable to take advantage of someone who is wearing clothes while using hands and feet at the same time. By the time all the clothes were put on, two quarters of an hour had passed.
Jinghan sat in front of the dressing table and combed her long hair. Now that she was married, she had to comb her hair into a woman's bun. She simply pulled her hair into a bun and inserted a silver hairpin.
Zixuan went out and brought some hot water in. Although there was water in the ear room, no one lit the fire. It's not a good idea to ask your parents to come over and light the fire, right? So Zixuan went to the front yard to get some water.
Jinghan washed her face, then Zixuan poured the water, and then directly poured cold water from the ear room and washed her face. They both packed up and headed to the front yard.
The Lin family had all gotten up. They had finished washing up and were waiting for the new couple to come over for dinner. Seeing the two people arriving late, Mr. He didn't look displeased, "Come and eat quickly. After dinner, you still need to get to know your relatives."
Zixuan helped Jinghan sit down, then helped fill a bowl of porridge, and then took an egg and put it in front of Jinghan. "Eat quickly."
Jinghan hurriedly lowered her head to eat. She had loved playing in the Lin family since she was a child. She was already used to eating the Lin family's food, so she didn't have any maladaptive problems. I drank a bowl of porridge happily, and then went to get another bowl myself. "Mom, this porridge is cooked really well and tastes delicious." Jinghan drank another bowl.
"Don't just drink porridge, there are also flower rolls and steamed buns. Porridge alone won't make you full." Mrs. He felt even happier when she saw her daughter-in-law eating happily. She is not that evil mother-in-law. Moreover, Zixuan and Jinghan only have a few months at home, and then they have to go to Zhendong County to become officials. It's too late for Mr. He to get close to his daughter-in-law, so how can he bully Jinghan?
"Mom, I'm sorry, I got up late this morning and couldn't help you cook." Jinghan knew that when a daughter-in-law came in, she would help cook the next morning, so she went to bed. Didn't get up at all in the morning. If it were another company, the rules would have to be set today.
"You young people already have a lot of sleep. You are newlyweds. How can you get up early? I don't need you. I have already done all the work at home. It won't take long. You can't live at home either. Zixuan will have to go to work in a few days, so he can rest at home for a while. Besides, you are still weak due to your serious illness, so you don't need to work." He smiled. She was happy that her son and his wife had a good relationship. It's not too late yet. If the two of them weren't clingy, where would he be able to hold his grandson?
The old lady of the Lin family next to her also said, "We don't have those rules in our family. As long as you and your wife are happy, it's fine. It's only proper for me to have my great-grandson as soon as possible."
Jinghan's face turned red again, she lowered her head and didn't know what to say, but Zixuan was so thick-skinned that she quickly nodded in agreement, "Don't worry, grandma, I will let you have your great-grandson as soon as possible."
Jinghan felt ashamed and annoyed, and stretched out her hand to twist Zixuan's waist.
Zixuan endured the pain, but the smile on his face did not change, "Eat quickly, there is an egg here for you too." He gave his share to Jinghan.
"I can't eat any more, you'd better eat it yourself." Jinghan had already drank two bowls of porridge, an egg, and half a flower roll, which was quite a lot.
After everyone had finished breakfast, Zixuan's uncle Erlin came over with his wife and children. Even Yumei and Wu Haiming also came, and the room suddenly became lively. There were no servants at home, so Yumei helped brew the tea and handed it to Jinghan.
Jinghan brought the tea, came to the old man and the old lady, knelt down and offered tea, "Grandpa and grandma, drink tea."
The old couple quickly picked up the tea and took a sip. Then the old lady took out a gold hairpin, and the old man took out a red envelope and put it on the tray. "You young couple want to live a happy life with He Meimei. Please discuss any matters. Do you understand?"
"Yes, my granddaughter-in-law knows." Jinghan agreed quickly.
Yumei changed the tray again, and there were still two cups of tea on it. This time it was time to honor her parents. Jinghan also knelt down in front of Xingjia and He, "Father, mother, drink tea."
The couple quickly brought the tea and took a sip. Then Xingjia also took out a red envelope, and He took out a pair of gold bracelets and put them on the tray. "We don't have anything to tell you. You are the child we have grown up with, and we know how people behave. Zixuan is going to be an official, and you must help him properly. It may be quite poor over there. If you If you have a way, just help the people there live a good life," Lin Xingjia said. He knew what Jinghan was capable of, and thought it would be easier for his son to handle things there with Jinghan's help.
"My daughter-in-law has remembered it, parents can rest assured." Jinghan just got up.
Next is Erlin and his wife. Of course, there is no need to kneel for this one. Zixuan just needs to introduce them. Erlin's wife took a look at the meeting gift that the old man and the others had just given her, and curled her lips. "Niece-in-law, my aunt isn't very talented, so don't be surprised if she can't come up with anything as a greeting gift."
The old man and the old lady immediately changed their faces. Yesterday, they had asked their second daughter-in-law to prepare something, even a veil. But today, the second daughter-in-law was so dumbfounded that she came empty-handed without bringing anything. The old couple are so angry. Not to mention that Jinghan still has the title of princess, and they are going to be friends with the Lin family and the Xu family for generations. Why can't they do this?
Jinghan smiled and said, "Auntie, what you said is obvious. Auntie is the elder, and Jinghan is the junior. How can a junior dare to choose gifts from the elders? Besides, it's just a name, it doesn't necessarily require a gift, Auntie Don’t keep it in mind. “Who cares about your things? I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to shake it off after I took it.
Then came Zixuan's aunt and uncle, who also gave Jinghan a meeting gift.
I have seen all the elders, and then there are the peers, Ziwen, the sons of the Erlin family, Zifu and Zixin, Yutao, and of course Yumei and her husband Wu Haiming, as well as a few from Aunt Zixuan's family. child. These are all younger than Zixuan, and Jinghan is their elder sister-in-law. When she was at home, Jinghan had already prepared things. Each person had a purse with two small silver coins worth two cents each, which were small and exquisite.
At this time, the children all cheered, "Thank you, sister-in-law."
The old lady rolled her eyes at Erlin's wife. I thought to myself, this prodigal daughter-in-law, if you don’t prepare a meeting gift for others, why don’t you want the things they give to your son and daughter? I'm happy to take it, don't you think it's embarrassing?
"Okay, I've met all these people at home. You two, you and I, you may want to stay at home, or you may want to go out for a walk. Now is a good time. It's better to go out and take a look at the scene outside than to stay bored at home. Come back tomorrow, just don't be too tired today." The old lady was holding back her anger, and she couldn't get angry in front of her grandchildren and daughter-in-law, so she wanted to get rid of them.
Zixuan knew his grandma quite well. When he saw this, he said, "Let's go to the river. You used to like to play there the most."
Jinghan nodded. She had left the village over the years and came back occasionally, usually during the Chinese New Year. She really didn't have time to go for a stroll by the river.
The two held hands, walked out of the house, and walked to the river. The Lin family and the original Xu family were not far apart, just one mile away, and both families were close to the river. It's spring time, and the willow trees by the river have grown green leaves and are full of vitality. On both sides of the river bank, dots of small yellow flowers swayed in the spring breeze, adding a touch of bright color to the spring. After crossing the river, in the distance are the fields of each family. Now is the season of spring plowing, and some people have not finished planting the land yet and are still cultivating the land.
"Zixuan, I like it here." Jinghan was in a good mood. She likes to be close to nature the most, and the scenery here makes her nostalgic.
"As long as you like it. Although we can't live at home for long, if you like it, I will bring you here every day." Zixuan put his arms around Jinghan's shoulders, and the two of them cuddled together by the water. .
